Sample Room: Try before you Buy

Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I post something in my blog been busy with left and right shopping for the holidays. I’ve been all around the town to get something for my love ones of course hunting for bargains and sales. So anyway here I am to blog about a site that I have stumble upon while I was surfing the net and reading my co-bloggers post.

Everyone wishes they can sample first a product before buying it not only on food but also on cosmetics, skin and hair care, and even wellness products. This is to test if these products works for us, you see not all individuals have the same genetics structure and so we are unique from one another. One product may work for someone while it don’t to some. But sometimes it’s such a hassle to ask for samples in stores specially when the sales lady is so eager with their sales talk and all. And so I am so glad that a site have answered our prayers for letting us have a sample of a product to try before buying it in the market for free.

The Sample Room is the first ever sampling site in the Philippines where you can have a sample product absolutely free and lets you review them to share your thoughts and opinion on the product that you avail on their site. They have diverse brand partners both local and international brands and is still growing until now. Unlike subscription boxes that surprises you with different products, you can choose a product on their site that you want to try according to your skin type and preference. Availing of products depends on points that members acquire from reviewing products, referring friends and buying points (coming soon). Upon registration 100 points is given to the member so one can start having samples and after paying the amount for shipping and handling fee. The product will be sent to your home or shipping address. The member needs to write a review following the posting guidelines on the site to regain back the points used and received more points. So basically that is how it all works.

Look what came in the mail.

Sample Room Package Sealed

I got my first sample products 2 days after I paid the shipping and handling fee which cost PHP 100. I paid through over-the-counter local bank deposit at Banco De Oro and inform Sample Room about my payment through e-mail attaching a photo of the bank deposit slip.

I choose 2 products which are both in full size. In my opinion it’s a steal since if I buy those products in the market It’ll cost me more than Php 100.

The products that I choose from Sample Room which comes in full sizes

Here are the products that I choose from the site. I’ll give you the product description written from the site.

Céleteque Maternity Anti-Stretch Mark Cream

The initial offering of the CÉLETEQUE DermoScience™ Maternity Line, the Anti-Stretch Mark Cream is OB-Gynecologist-certified safe for pregnant women. The Cream has Elastonyl that helps protect and restore the tone and elasticity of the skin; Alchemilla vulgaris extract or Lady’s Mantle that provides firming properties; and Shea Butter that promotes strengthening of the skin and provides deep moisturization.

Full size of Celeteque Anti-Stretch mark cream is 100 ml and cost Php 445 in the market and I got the full size to try it. This product is very timely for me since I got old and new stretch marks from my previous and current pregnancy. So I badly need a regimen to minimize the old ones and prevent having new ones too.

Moringa-O2 is best recommended for those with the following skin conditions:

For dry and sensitive skin

For itchy skin

Aging skin

Skin asthma and Keratosis Pilaris

KEY BENEFITS:

Gently cleanses residual dirt without drying

May help reduce pimples

Stimulates cell regeneration and skin renewal

Minimizes pores

Improves skin elasticity and suppleness

Skin lightening

Full size of Moringa-O2 Herbal Facial Toner is 100 ml and cost Php 89.75, also comes in full size. I’m currently in search for a great toner right now since I can’t get my hands on any Clerasil toner anymore.

So I got 2 products which have a total cost of PHP 534.75 and it only cost me 100 pesos for shipping and handling fee. I get to try 2 product and write a review about them if they work for me. Not only will it help me save but also my reviews that I will write on the site will help other people if the product is worth buying.

You could register on the site by clicking this Sample Room or you can send me your e-mail address at vharaine@hotmail.com so I could refer you to join the site. Thanks for reading this post and hope it helps. Will try to blog more with the reviews I had with some of the products that I got from the boxes. Till next time.
